Really pleased with my first bait. 10" swimbait similar to shadzilla but a bit bigger overall. Tried a deeper belly but it rolled on retrieve.
Made original in plasticene, laid in a plastic box on its flat back, poured plaster of paris, dried mold in oven off and on for a week at lowest temp, coated with three coats of modpodge, dried in oven again, lubed with Pam spray and poured with recycled chewed soft baits.

Next step is to improve my internal harness and weight so I have no top hook and I just ordered a cheap airbrush so I could paint eyes and scale patterns using CoLure Soft Plastic Lure paint when I get it all failed in.

Then I am gonna do a dawgdussa type pattern:)

Looks great, :D

I just dry the POP mold in the oven, at 400 degrees for 1½ hour, never had one crack yet, but i heard it could happen :P
